Afternoon

I'm trying to set up Subcontracting for the first time. 2 scenarios. 1) the stock will come straight from supplier to subcontractor, 2) the stock will come from our site to the subcontractor. 

I have issues with option 2, I've done all the steps to assign the subcontractor the location, set up the items as deliverable, bought, sold etc. I can create the subcontract order with the materials and service. However, after allocating the stock, i should be able to ship the stock using Sales>Shipments, type SDC and selecting the order from the left hand side. But it does not appear so I'm stuck. I do notice that the material status on the Sub order is showing as "On Hold" despite being allocated.

I've double checked my set up 10 times but cannot see my problem. There's a good guide here, https://www.netatwork.com/sage-x3-tips-tricks-subcontract-orders-without-a-work-order/  and I've cross referenced my set up with this, but nothing seems amiss. 

Anyone had much experience with this, any other documents i could refer to?

Thanks
